The soft textures of an almond tree leaf take shape in golden bronze in this delicate sculpture. Pietrina Checcacci shares her love of nature with a series of realistic leaf sculptures. She uses a natural leaf to create a mold and finishes it with a combination of polished and oxidized patinas for a beautiful gold-speckled finish.
Born in Italy, Pietrina moved to Brazil as a young girl and has lived there ever since. She works in a multitude of media like painting, drawing, printing, and sculpture. Her work focuses on the relationship between humans and Earth, and has received multiple awards at home and abroad.

It is absolutely stunning. The Hematite is flawless and the hand is to cut. I will enjoy looking at it every day.
